Numinous Posted October 23, 2003 Author Posted October 23, 2003 you are right un4given1.. the reason microsoft never allowed directx setup to run silent was because they wanted people to see the EULA.. you see it when dxwebsetup executes so this does kinda keep it intact
RyanVM Posted October 23, 2003 Posted October 23, 2003 wow, I go to sleep and when I wake up, the thread has tripled in size Glad to see this idea has taken off!
un4given1 Posted October 23, 2003 Posted October 23, 2003 I work in a corporate environment and we are a Microsoft Select Partner so EULAs have a completely different meaning to me than most "home users." I almost find it funny that many people spend more time creating and updating thier unattended CDs than it would have taken them to reinstall it every time they want. I can understand it though. Some people do it just to know that they can. Other do it just because they want to minimize their downtime. Everyone has their reason.
DaveXP Posted October 23, 2003 Posted October 23, 2003 I have just updated my ftp so the new settings areAddress:ftp://81.106.203.220:3421max of 5 people that anyone time.

Everyone has their reason.haha, true.datI found that there was a lot of upfront work to do when doing the unattended CD, but maintaining it at this point is just downloading new apps when they appear and adding them to the CD.

I'm getting a "Socket error: no connection" type error, so it can't be anything to do with a full queue.

DarkBringer Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 Can this DirectX be used in Windows Server 2003?
Marztabator Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 At what exact times is your FTP up, Dave? I haven't been able to examine it yet.
Numinous Posted October 25, 2003 Author Posted October 25, 2003 Can this DirectX be used in Windows Server 2003?you'll need to build your own using the guide
Marztabator Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 ****. I still haven't been able to see the contents. Are you sure the address is still the same as on the previous page, Dave? Does the IP consistently change? Or are you seeing the maximum 5 people populating it every time?
